Ingredients
- 6 cups diced sweet potato peeled (approx. 3 large sweet potatoes)
- ½ cup oat milk or milk of choice
- ¼ cup butter regular or vegan
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
for the topping:
- ¾ cup rolled oats see notes for oat-free version
- ⅓ cup oat flour or sub almond flour
- ½ cup pecans chopped
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup butter regular or vegan, melted
Instructions
- Add diced sweet potatoes to a large pot, then fill it with water so that the potatoes are covered by one inch. Bring to a boil, then continue boiling until the potatoes can easily be pierced with a fork, 8-10 minutes. Drain, then place the potatoes back into the pot.
- Preheat oven to 350° then grease a 9x13 baking dish with nonstick spray.
- Add the milk, butter, vanilla, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt to the pot, then use a potato masher to mash the potatoes; transfer them to your prepared baking dish, using the back of a spoon to smooth them out.
- Next, make the topping. In a large bowl, stir the oats, flour, pecans, brown sugar, and salt together; then, pour the melted butter overtop and stir to combine. Sprinkle the topping over the sweet potatoes.
- Bake the casserole for 25-30 minutes. Remove it from the oven and wait 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
